so-soThis is a story of adoption. It has heart and meaning. But I find it a little long. I love the illustrations. Another part of me, sees a negative side, because the word “adopt” is never used in any form, it could also be seen as an abduction story. But luckily, not to most. I choose to look at the good side of this story.
pickThis isn't exactly a feel-good book. Porcupette finds an adoptive family, but he's sad and misses his biological mother constantly. He lashes out because he doesn't know how to handle his emotional pain. Porcupette's situation is reality for many foster children. Having a hard time accepting that someone might love them, they often try to protect themselves from love itself. It's a good book for helping kids understand foster children. #netgalley
